Spokane County, Washington Inmate Search

In Spokane County, the Sheriff’s Office provides access to inmate information through an online jail roster. The Spokane County Detention Services Inmate Roster provides details about inmates at the Spokane County Jail and the Geiger Corrections Center. In addition to local jail facilities, the Washington State Department of Corrections also accommodates inmates at the Airway Heights Corrections Center (AHCC) in Spokane County. Individuals can access information about inmates at the AHCC through the Washington Department of Corrections (DOC) Incarcerated Search Portal.

Local police departments, such as the Spokane Police Department and the Spokane Valley Police Department, do not maintain separate inmate rosters. They transfer individuals in their custody to the county’s detention facilities. Hence, access to their inmate information is through county or regional systems.

The Spokane County Inmate Roster and similar search tools provide access to public-facing information, such as:

• Inmates identifying details
• Custody status
• Charges and legal status
• Mugshots (if available)
• Arresting agency (police department)
• Holds or warrants from other jurisdictions.
